Olive’s Ocean

Written By: Marissa Walsh
Two girls almost as different
as can be. One a normal school girl
doing everything everybody else does. The
other shy as a fly, she is quiet and
doesn’t seem to mind that. Two totally
different girls who hoped to become best
friends. Now one dead and one alive, what
else could happen? Now someone else
in her way, getting distracted among
the days. All leading down to Olive’s Ocean.

Question: Do you think that is good that Martha is falling for Jimmy?
Response: No, because Martha was getting off focus and getting distracted from her book. She was also not being herself anymore.

Question: Do you think because Martha was writing her book about Olive, it would make her have a connection with Olive?
Response: Yes, because she was writing about what Olive wrote about in her diary and so she would know more of what she was like.

Question: What do you think is the main point of this book?
Response: I think the main poi t of the story is while you are alive you should be friends and be nice with everybody because you never know when that person is going to leave earth.

Paragraph: We had a very interesting and creative discussion.
I though that it was really cool that
everybody came up with the same answers.
This all happened in a couple of minutes



Olive’s Ocean
By: Kendellan Chapman

Martha is writing her book
as quiet as could be
.She gets distracted by a boy
and now she is like a bee.
She never touches it again for a week
and now the book is weeping.
He makes a bet
and kisses the girl.
Now she is distracted
and her book is abandoned.

Martha went through a kiss with this boy that she liked but the boy really did not like her. The only reason Jimmy (the boy) kissed Martha was because it was just a bet. Martha couldn’t believe that this was happening to her. Martha was both sad and mad at the same time, but unlike Martha I have never kissed a boy before but my friend Kendellan has kissed a boy that actually liked her in 5th grade. Also unlike Martha I am not a very brave girl.
